The reactivities of various commercial and lab-made oxide samples (e.g., γ-Al2O3, CeO2, ZrO2 and TiO2) in the heterogeneous catalytic synthesis of N-phenylpropionamide (T, 383 K) from aniline and propanoic acid have been investigated. All the materials studied drive the direct synthesis of the amide to an extent depending on both the chemical and structural properties. A 0th-order kinetic dependence on the substrate concentrations suggests that the reaction proceeds via a Langmuir-Hinshelwood (L-H) pathway under kinetic control of the adsorption-desorption steps (the rate determining step, r.d.s.). The comparative analysis of the activity data on the basis of the relative surface specific kinetic constant discloses a superior surface reactivity of TiO2, CeO2 and ZrO2 over the γ-Al2O3 system, and also highlights marked differences in the catalytic functionality of the titania samples. IR spectroscopic studies of the carboxylic acids and amine adsorption and interaction patterns show the formation of the bidentate, bridging, and unidentate carboxylate intermediates accounting for the different amidation functionalities of the studied materials.

The Vilsmeier reagent (VR), first reported a century ago, is a versatile reagent in a variety of organic reactions. It is used extensively in formylation reactions. However, the synthesis of VR generally requires highly toxic and corrosive reagents such as POCl3, SOCl2, or COCl2. In this study, we found that VR is readily obtained from a CHCl3 solution containing N,N-dimethylformamide or N,N-dimethylacetamide upon photo-irradiation under O2 bubbling. The corresponding Vilsmeier reagents were obtained in high yields with the generation of gaseous HCl and CO2 as byproducts to allow their isolations as crystalline solid products amenable to analysis by X-ray crystallography. With the advantage of using CHCl3, which bifunctionally serves as a reactant and a solvent, this photo-on-demand VR synthesis is available for one-pot syntheses of aldehydes, acid chlorides, formates, ketones, esters, and amides.

A metal-free heterogeneous photocatalysis has been developed for the synthesis of benzothiazoles via intramolecular C-H functionalization/C-S bond formation of thiobenzanilides by inexpensive graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) under visible-light irradiation. This reaction provides access to a broad range of 2-substituted benzothiazoles in high yields under an air atmosphere at room temperature without addition of a strong base or organic oxidizing reagents. In addition, the catalyst was found to be stable and reusable after five reaction cycles.

Herein, unprecedented manganese-catalyzed direct α-alkenylation of amides using alcohols is reported. Aryl amides are reacted with diverse primary alcohols, which provided the α,β-unsaturated amides in moderate to good yields with excellent selectivity. Mechanistic studies indicate that Mn(I) catalyst oxidizes the alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes and also plays an important role in efficient C═C bond formation through aldol condensation. This selective olefination is facilitated by metal-ligand cooperation by the aromatization-dearomatization process operating in the catalytic system. Biorenewable alcohols are used as alkenylation reagents for the challenging α-alkenylation of amides with the highly abundant base metal manganese as a catalyst, which results in water and dihydrogen as the only byproduct, making this catalytic transformation attractive, sustainable, and environmentally benign.

Paragraph 0055-0079; 0176-0181, (2021/08/25)
The invention relates to a preparation method of an amide, wherein, under the action of oxygen, the isothiocyanate and the aldehyde can react to form an amide, and the reaction temperature can be effectively increased only when not less than 110 °C. This process is also suitable for the reaction of isocyanates with aldehydes to produce amides. The preparation method is cheap in raw material, wide in substrate application range and free of metal catalysts in the reaction process. The initiator or other activator is green and economical, and can effectively reduce the cost.

A palladium-catalyzed asymmetric Markovnikov hydroaminocarbonylation of alkenes with anilines has been developed for the atom-economical synthesis of 2-substituted propanamides bearing an α-stereocenter. A novel phosphoramidite ligand L16 was discovered which exhibited very high reactivity and selectivity in the reaction. This asymmetric Markovnikov hydroaminocarbonylation employs readily available starting materials and tolerates a wide range of functional groups, thus providing a facile and straightforward method for the regio- and enantioselective synthesis of 2-substituted propanamides under ambient conditions. Mechanistic studies revealed that the reaction proceeds through a palladium hydride pathway.

An efficient and selectiveN-functionalization of amides is first reportedviaa CuI-catalyzed Goldberg-type C-N coupling reaction between aryl iodides and primary/secondary amides run either in Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs) or water as sustainable reaction media, under mild and bench-type reaction conditions (absence of protecting atmosphere). Higher activities were observed in an aqueous medium, though the employment of DESs expanded and improved the scope of the reaction to include also aliphatic amides. Additional valuable features of the reported protocol include: (i) the possibility to scale up the reaction without any erosion of the yield/reaction time; (ii) the recyclability of both the catalyst and the eutectic solvent up to 4 consecutive runs; and (iii) the feasibility of the proposed catalytic system for the synthesis of biologically active molecules.

A novel transformation of primary amides to secondary amides promoted by hypervalent iodine reagents was developed. The hypervalent iodine reagent-mediated Hofmann-type rearrangement generated an isocyanate intermediate, which was subsequently trapped by an in situ generated carboxylic acid from the hypervalent iodine reagent to provide the corresponding secondary amides. This method provided a facile and efficient route for the synthesis of secondary amides from primary amides and also revealed novel reactivities of hypervalent iodine reagents.

Pt nanoparticles supported on N doped titanium dioxide/titanium carbide (MXene) heterojunctions were employed as photocatalysts for the tandem reactions between aromatic nitro compounds and carboxylic acids to produce amide products. The 3%Pt/N-TiO2/Ti3C2 heterojunction was prepared by in situ grew TiO2 on Ti3C2 nanosheets and then N doped TiO2 with melamine, Pt nanoparticles with 3.3 nm mean diameter well dispersed on N-TiO2/Ti3C2. 3%Pt/N-TiO2/Ti3C2 had excellent amidation activity and chemoselectivity under visible-light irradiation. The elevated catalytic performance of 3%Pt/N-TiO2/Ti3C2 was owing to the improvement in photogenerated electron and hole separation efficiency through charge short-range directional transmission caused by the intimate contact between the TiO2 and the conductive Ti3C2. This direct hydrogenation along with amidation between nitroaromatics and carboxylic acids own actual merits in the amides produce with no harmful byproducts. In situ DRIFTS spectra verified that the amidation activation with visible light irradiation at 25 °C was much faster than heating.

Paragraph 0028, (2021/06/09)
The invention discloses a method for catalyzing one-pot hydrogenation and amidation reaction of nitroaromatic hydrocarbon and carboxylic acid by visible light. The method comprises the following steps: preparing Pt nanoparticles uniformly dispersed on an N-doped titanium dioxide/titanium carbide (MXene) heterojunction as a photocatalyst (3% Pt/N-TiO2/Ti3C2), and applying the catalyst to a cascade reaction of an aromatic nitro compound and carboxylic acid to prepare an amide product. The 3% Pt/N-TiO2/Ti3C2 has excellent tandem hydrogenation and amidation activity and chemical selectivity of an aromatic nitro compound and carboxylic acid under the irradiation of visible light. The excellent catalytic performance of 3% Pt/N-TiO2/Ti3C2 is attributed to the close contact of TiO2 and conductive Ti3C2, and the separation efficiency of photo-induced electrons and holes is improved through charge short-range directional transmission. The preparation method of the catalyst is simple and easy to operate, the catalyst can be used for photocatalytic efficient one-pot hydrogenation and amidation reactions, the reaction conditions are mild, and the catalyst is easy to recycle.
